Fast travel: The host is too crazy to shoot, the system can't stop it

Chapter 164 Rivers and Lakes ([-]) Tasks
Elder Xuan usually meets in the study room in the back room. In this Xuan Valley, no one can enter the back room at will unless called by Elder Xuan. This is the rule.

Ming Qi and Ming Xu could only follow the summoned attendants all the way, neither fast nor slow.

"Ah, it's so rare to meet. It's been a long time." Near the door of the study, a female voice came, the tone was gentle and soft, but the tone made people feel uncomfortable.

Seeing that person, the attendant bowed and called: "Second Miss." Then he turned around and bowed to Ming Qi and the others, and stepped back for the time being.

The woman called Second Miss is named Ming Rou, and she is about the same age as Ming Qi. Youdao is full of charm, with charming eyes like silk, but there is murderous intent hidden deep in those seductive eyes, which are cold and crazy.

Ming Qi glanced at her, and said in a bad tone: "Yeah, long time no see, I really hope never to see each other again."

Ming Rou smiled, and continued, "I want to too, but we will always come when the adoptive father calls."

Ming Qi didn't seem to be bothered to say anything more to her, he turned sideways and prepared to walk around her directly.

"Hey? What happened to our Xu'er? Is there still a wound on the face? Did someone hit us by mistake? We were too careless."

Ming Rou shifted her gaze to Ming Xu's side, sized her up, raised her eyebrows, turned her head to look at Ming Qi, and pointedly said: "My foster father will feel distressed when he sees it."

"It has nothing to do with you." Ming Xu replied calmly.

"Why doesn't it have anything to do with me?" Ming Rou laughed and said slowly, "I'm not your sister..."

"Okay," Ming Qi interrupted her, saying mercilessly, "Don't be disgusting, shut up now."

Ming Rou was not annoyed at being scolded like this, she stared at the person in front of her with a hideous smile, and said: "You should thank Lord Yifu for telling us not to fight privately, otherwise I will be poisonous and dumb first, and then dig your Eye."

Ming Qi sneered, "Try if you have the ability, and see who gets rid of who first?"

Ming Rou's face changed slightly, her fingertips trembled slightly, Ming Qi's right hand was also placed on the hilt of the sword, Ming Xu took a step back to make room for offense and defense, the conflict was about to break out──
"Here, come in, what are you doing outside?"

Suddenly a dull voice came from the study, with a cold and scary tone.

The three of them immediately stopped moving, Ming Rou reacted first, her complexion changed, she became obedient and pious, she admitted her mistake, "I'm sorry foster father, I'll come right away."

Then he ignored the other two, immediately pushed open the door, and entered impatiently.

Ming Qi and Ming Xu paused for a moment, then also followed inside.

The study was a little dark, Xuan Gu was already dark, and the study in the back room was not exposed to sunlight all year round, and there was only one candle lit in the room, and the faint flickering light could hardly illuminate anything.

Dark, dreary and cold.

The door of the study closed automatically after they entered, isolating everything outside.

In the flickering candlelight, an old man sat at the desk, pointing his fingers at the table from time to time, looking at them leisurely.

"Enough noise, will you come in?"

Ming Qi pursed his lips, lowered his head and said softly, "Father, forgive me."

Elder Xuan didn't reply, stood up slowly, walked to Ming Qi and looked at him quietly.

Ming Qi lowered his head and couldn't see Elder Xuan's expression, and he didn't dare to look up at all, his heart was like a thorn, waiting to be punished.

However, Mr. Xuan quickly walked away and said as he walked: "You are a family. Brothers and sisters should support each other instead of quarreling all day long. Do you hear me? Okay, I won't pursue this matter. You can report the progress of the task. one time."

Seeing that Elder Xuan didn't want to punish, Ming Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said: "The cleaning and collection has been going smoothly, and two boxes have been collected this month, and no one has discovered it."

"The information and release of Blood Cloud Strange Scrolls are also going smoothly," Ming Rou continued, "At present, two new ones have been selected, and they have a good contact attitude. They should be released soon, and the timing of the other three is almost the same. You can collect the net."

Among the three, Ming Qi and Ming Xu are responsible for purging targets, while Ming Rou is mainly responsible for selecting targets and disseminating news, so Ming Rou and the others rarely meet, only when called by Elder Xuan.

The above sounded like good news. Elder Xuan fiddled with the papers on the table casually, nodded and said, "Well, not bad, keep working hard."

"Yes."

Hearing this, it seems that this summoning can be passed so easily, but Elder Xuan suddenly changed the subject and said: "However, there is one more thing..."

Elder Xuan's eyes fell on the silent Ming Xu, and he said coldly, "Xu'er, kneel down."

Ming Xu was stunned for a moment, not daring to hesitate, and did as he was told.

Elder Xuan walked up to him and asked, "Do you know why I made you kneel down?"

Ming Xu slowed down and replied softly, "I don't know..."

"Oh, you don't know," Elder Xuan turned his head to look at Ming Qi, his eyes slightly angry, "Come on, Qi'er, tell me why."

At this point, Ming Qi also immediately guessed what was going on, he looked a bit tangled, and meeting Xuan Lao's gaze, he could only slowly say: "Ming Xu...he didn't kill a mother and child in the last mission... But the adoptive father, the mother and son died later, and he didn't miss anything, he..."

"Enough, shut up."

Ming Qi immediately fell silent, bit his lower lip and dared not say anything more.

Elder Xuan looked down at the person kneeling in front of him, then suddenly bent down, stretched out his hand to force him to look up at him, and said in a low voice, "Xu'er, you are my favorite child, but why do you always let me down? "

Xuanlao's eyes were dark and vicious, and the aura released from his body was even more chilling. Ming Xu suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and just about to reply, Xuanlao suddenly let go of his hand, stood up straight, and continued: "Needless to say What's the matter, you should be punished if you make a mistake, and this time you have to punish well, otherwise you really don't have a long memory."

Elder Xuan's tone was very low, which was a dangerous signal, and Ming Qi hurriedly said, "Father, let me do it."

"Are you coming?" Mr. Xuan asked, "How many times have you come? Has he changed his mind?"

"This time, Rou'er, come here and discipline your brother well, and don't follow the same bad rules again and again!"

Ming Rou was stunned when she heard this, and then immediately agreed, "Yes, adoptive father, I will definitely do my best."

Ming Qi looked at Ming Rou, whose eyes were full of joy, and then at Ming Xu, who lowered his head and said nothing, frowning, but he did not dare to object or even say anything in front of Mr. Xuan.

People like them can't help themselves, what should they do?How can it be?
Ming Qi dared to try to find someone after two days to ensure that Elder Xuan left Xuangu.

However, Mingrou has not left since Mr. Xuan left, so finding someone will not go smoothly.

"It's been two days, what about others?" Ming Qi asked.

Ming Rou took care of the poisonous powder in her nails, and said casually, "What does this have to do with you? The adoptive father said it, and he let me handle it."

Ming Qi took a deep breath, retreated and said: "Shall I see him at the head office?"

Ming Rou raised her eyes to look at him, smiled and said, "Not today."

"Then tomorrow."

"Not even tomorrow, because you have a task assigned and you have to leave today."

"Task?"

The task assigned at this juncture is obviously to send Ming Qi away!
Ming Qi frowned, looked at the smiling woman in front of him, took a step closer and warned in a low voice: "The adoptive father asked you to punish him, not to kill him!"

However, this didn't scare Ming Rou at all, she raised her eyebrows, and replied: "I know, don't worry, he will definitely not die by my hands."

Seeing what people wanted to say, Ming Rou said first: "You have to hurry up, time is urgent, if you delay the task, you know the consequences."

The two confronted each other for a while, and finally Ming Qi left first—he had to complete the mission as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Seeing people leave, Ming Rou continued to play with her nails leisurely, with a deeper smile on her face.

On the third day, Ming Rou opened the door of the darkroom and walked down slowly.

Ming Xu heard the movement and looked up, his face was pale, only his lips were bright red because of the blood.

Due to the stimulation of drugs and pain, Ming Xu has been unable to fall asleep or even fall into a coma, and his spirit has become extremely weak.

Ming Rou approached and looked at the person in front of him. His arms were bound and bound by iron wires. There were tiny steel spikes on the special iron wires, which were entangled tightly and cut the skin. A bloody mess slowly oozes out. blood.

Ming Rou didn't speak, she stretched out her hand and untied the iron wires that bound her. Without any support, Ming Xu immediately fell to the ground with her hands trembling slightly.

Mingrou knelt down to look at him levelly, took out his sword and handed it over, saying calmly: "You have a mission tomorrow, remember to complete it."

"What...mission?" Ming Xu spoke slowly, her voice was like torn silk, hoarse and unpleasant.

"Don't worry, the mission is very simple. It's just a small escort agency. You can handle it by yourself. It's not difficult."

"I'm alone...tomorrow?"

It is true that sometimes only one person will be sent to some missions where there are not many objectives, but Mingxu's current state...

"Yes, your brother has already gone on a mission. He took many people with him, so now we don't have enough manpower. But it's okay. With your strength, you can definitely do it..."

Mingrou smiled cordially, her eyes were full of tenderness, she stretched out her hand to press Mingxu's shoulder in an intimate manner, and reminded him in his ear: "The task has been dispatched, you need to hurry up."

Ming Xu's face turned pale again.

This woman happened to press the wound on Ming Xu's shoulder, just like she arranged this task, it was intentional at all.

She just wants Ming Xu to die!
